Directions Pozole Rojo (Mexican Pork and Hominy Stew)
Directions
-
Place hominy in a large pot, cover with water. Add 1 head garlic and salt to taste. Cook over medium heat for 2 hours.
Place pork shoulder, pork loin, and pork neck bones in the hominy mixture and cook until meat is tender and cooked through, about 1 hour.
Place tomato and guajillo chiles in a pot and add enough water to cover, bring to a boil. Cook until chiles have softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.
Place tomato and chiles with salt, 1 clove garlic, oregano, and cumin in a blender, add 2 cups water. Blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve and set chile sauce aside.
Transfer pork to a work surface and shred with 2 forks. Discard the pork bones.
Pour chile sauce into hominy mixture, bring to a boil. Return shredded pork to pot. Simmer pozole until flavors have blended, about 3 minutes.
Ladle pozole into serving bowls and top with lettuce and onion and serve lime wedge on the side.
